Diagnosis Test small, planispirally coiled, slightly evolute and biumbilicate, chambers globular, enlarging rapidly, four to five in the final whorl, sutures radial, depressed, periphery broadly rounded, peripheral outline lobulate; wall calcareous, finely perforate, known specimens with strong calcareous overgrowths obscuring the original surface; aperture a low interiomarginal and equatorial opening, bordered by a narrow rim, may have poorly developed relict apertures. L. Cretaceous (Aptian to Albian); cosmopolitan. (Loeblich & Tappan, 1987, Foraminiferal Genera and Their Classification) [details]
